Hey all! Longtime lurker here and now I am turning to you pros for a very odd piece of advice. Sorry in advance.
I have blacked out original briefcase that I bought about two years for everyday carry. Every time I use it, it's awesome. It fits my MacBook, camera, notebooks, Anker, everything I need day in, day out. I love it beyond reason, but I just don't get to carry it enough as I would like.
The problem is I'm a swimmer and I commute to work by train, which makes for oddball packing a lot of the time.
I leave the house, local pool, jump on the train, off to work. I have my carry down to the absolute minimum – trunks, micro fleece towel, chlorine removal soap, that sort of thing, but it adds up. Together with the everyday stuff, it's just that little too big for the briefcase, so I find myself packing a canvas messenger bag
Do I just stuff the hell out of my briefcase? Get something bigger like a tote (which feels profligate)? Carry two bags (which is super cumbersome)?
Also, if you know a more appropriate place for a neurotic question like this, point me there instead
